With gradual return to football starting with the German Bundesliga last weekend and the group training in England, Chukwueze and his teammates have also started training based on the protocols issued by health authorities.

The Spanish Government has given teams in the La Liga the permission to begin training in the group of ten, as clubs get set for the restart of the league on June 12.
